Sigma Chi (ΣΧ) International Fraternity is one of the largest North American social <a href="Fraternities_and_sororities" class="mw-redirect" title="Fraternities and sororities">fraternities</a>. The fraternity has 244 active undergraduate chapters and 152 alumni chapters across the United States and Canada and has initiated over 350,000 members.<a href="#cite_note-ReferenceB-1">[1]</a> The fraternity was founded on June 28, 1855, at <a href="Miami_University" title="Miami University">Miami University</a> in <a href="Oxford%2C_Ohio" title="Oxford, Ohio">Oxford, Ohio</a>, by members who split from the <a href="Delta_Kappa_Epsilon" title="Delta Kappa Epsilon">Delta Kappa Epsilon</a> fraternity.

Sigma Chi is divided into seven operational entities: the Sigma Chi Fraternity, the Sigma Chi Foundation, the Sigma Chi Canadian Foundation, the Risk Management Foundation, Constantine Capital Inc., the Blue and Gold Travel Services, and the newly organised Sigma Chi Leadership Institute.<a href="#cite_note-2">[2]</a>

Like all fraternities, Sigma Chi has its own colors, insignia, and rituals. According to the fraternity's constitution, "the purpose of this fraternity shall be to cultivate and maintain the high ideals of friendship, justice, and learning upon which Sigma Chi was founded."

Sigma Chi was founded in 1855 by <a href="Benjamin_Piatt_Runkle" title="Benjamin Piatt Runkle">Benjamin Piatt Runkle</a>, <a href="Thomas_Cowan_Bell" title="Thomas Cowan Bell">Thomas Cowan Bell</a>, William Lewis Lockwood, <a href="Isaac_M._Jordan" title="Isaac M. Jordan">Isaac M. Jordan</a>, Daniel William Cooper, Franklin Howard Scobey, and James Parks Caldwell as the result of a disagreement over who would be elected Poet in the Erodelphian Literary Society of <a href="Miami_University" title="Miami University">Miami University</a> in <a href="Ohio" title="Ohio">Ohio</a>.<a href="#cite_note-foundingstory-3">[3]</a><a href="#cite_note-Beta_Theta_Pi-4">[4]</a>

Several members of Miami University's <a href="Delta_Kappa_Epsilon" title="Delta Kappa Epsilon">Delta Kappa Epsilon</a> chapter (of which all but one of Sigma Chi's founders were members) were also members of the Erodelphian Literary Society. In the fall of 1854 the literary society was to elect its poet and a member of Delta Kappa Epsilon was nominated for the position. He was supported by five of his brothers, but four others, James Caldwell, Isaac Jordan, Benjamin Runkle, and Franklin Scobey, supported another man who was not a member of the fraternity. Although Thomas Bell and Daniel Cooper were not members of Erodelphian they had aligned themselves with the four dissenting members. The chapter had twelve members total and were evenly divided on the issue. Both sides saw this as a matter of principle and over the next few months their friendships became distanced.<a href="#cite_note-foundingstory-3">[3]</a><a href="#cite_note-Beta_Theta_Pi-4">[4]</a>

In February 1855 Runkle and his companions planned a dinner for their brothers in an attempt to seal the rift. <a href="Whitelaw_Reid" title="Whitelaw Reid">Whitelaw Reid</a>, one of the other brothers who supported the Delta Kappa Epsilon member as poet, was the only one to arrive. Reid brought a Delta Kappa Epsilon alumnus named Minor Millikin from a nearby town.<a href="#cite_note-foundingstory-3">[3]</a> Reid had told Millikin his side of the dispute and they had arrived to punish the group for not supporting their Delta Kappa Epsilon brother. The leaders of the rebellion, Runkle and Scobey, were to be expelled from the fraternity. The other four would be allowed to stay in the fraternity.<a href="#cite_note-foundingstory-3">[3]</a> Runkle resigned, and after the parent chapter at <a href="Yale_University" title="Yale University">Yale University</a> was contacted, all six men were formally expelled.<a href="#cite_note-foundingstory-3">[3]</a>

The six men decided to form their own fraternity along with William Lewis Lockwood, a student from New York who had not joined a fraternity. On June 28, 1855, the organization was founded under the name Sigma Phi Fraternity.<a href="#cite_note-5">[5]</a> Lockwood used his business training to help organize the fraternity in its early years.<a href="#cite_note-6">[6]</a> The eventual theft of Sigma Phi's constitution, rituals, seals, and other records from Lockwood's room in <a href="Oxford%2C_Ohio" title="Oxford, Ohio">Oxford</a> in January 1856 prompted them to change the name of the fraternity to Sigma Chi.<a href="#cite_note-Lettermen_Boston-7">[7]</a> It is possible this action could have been forced upon the group as there was already a <a href="Sigma_Phi" title="Sigma Phi">Sigma Phi</a> Society.

Much of Sigma Chi's heraldry was inspired by the legendary story of the <a href="Emperor_Constantine" class="mw-redirect" title="Emperor Constantine">Emperor Constantine</a> from the <a href="Battle_of_Milvian_Bridge" class="mw-redirect" title="Battle of Milvian Bridge">Battle of Milvian Bridge</a> against <a href="Maxentius" title="Maxentius">Maxentius</a>. The White Cross and the motto "<a href="In_Hoc_Signo_Vinces" class="mw-redirect" title="In Hoc Signo Vinces">In Hoc Signo Vinces</a>" are examples of the Constantine link.

<ul><li><a href="Benjamin_Piatt_Runkle" title="Benjamin Piatt Runkle">Benjamin Piatt Runkle</a> (September 3, 1836 – June 28, 1916) was born in <a href="West_Liberty%2C_Ohio" title="West Liberty, Ohio">West Liberty, Ohio</a>. Runkle helped design the badge of Sigma Chi based on the story of Constantine and the vision of the Cross. Runkle was known for having a fierce pride and was suspended from <a href="Miami_University" title="Miami University">Miami University</a> when he fought a member of <a href="Beta_Theta_Pi" title="Beta Theta Pi">Beta Theta Pi</a> for sneering at his badge. When the <a href="American_Civil_War" title="American Civil War">Civil War</a> began Runkle joined the <a href="Union_Army" class="mw-redirect" title="Union Army">Union Army</a>. He was badly wounded at the <a href="Battle_of_Shiloh" title="Battle of Shiloh">Battle of Shiloh</a> and left for dead on the battlefield. Runkle stayed in the army as a career and retired as a <a href="Major_general" title="Major general">major general</a>. After his service in the Union Army he was ordained an <a href="Episcopal_Church_(United_States)" title="Episcopal Church (United States)">Episcopal</a> priest.

<li><a href="Thomas_Cowan_Bell" title="Thomas Cowan Bell">Thomas Cowan Bell</a> (May 14, 1832 – February 3, 1919) was born near <a href="Dayton%2C_Ohio" title="Dayton, Ohio">Dayton, Ohio</a>. He was twenty-three years old when Sigma Chi was founded, second oldest of the founders. He graduated from Miami University in 1857 and began teaching. In 1861 he enlisted in the Union Army and rose to the rank of <a href="Lieutenant" title="Lieutenant">lieutenant</a>. After the war he returned to his career in education, serving as the superintendent of schools in Nobles County, Minnesota as well as the principal and president of several preparatory and collegiate institutions in the Western United States. Bell died the day after attending the initiation of Alpha Beta chapter at <a href="University_of_California_Berkeley" class="mw-redirect" title="University of California Berkeley">University of California Berkeley</a> on February 3, 1919.

<li>William Lewis Lockwood (October 31, 1836 – August 17, 1867) was born in New York City. He was the only founder who had not been a member of <a href="Delta_Kappa_Epsilon" title="Delta Kappa Epsilon">Delta Kappa Epsilon</a>. He was considered the "businessman" of the founders and managed the first chapter's funds and general operations, becoming the first treasurer of Sigma Chi. After graduating from Miami University in 1858 he moved back to New York and began work as a lawyer. He received serious wounds serving in the Union Army during the Civil War, from which he never fully recovered. He named his son after Franklin Howard Scobey.<a href="#cite_note-11">[11]</a></li>

<li><a href="Isaac_M._Jordan" title="Isaac M. Jordan">Isaac M.

After graduating from Miami University in 1857 he went on to graduate school, where he graduated in 1862. He then began work as an attorney and was elected to the <a href="United_States_Congress" title="United States Congress">United States Congress</a> in 1882.<a href="#cite_note-14">[14]</a> He proceeded to change his middle name, Alfred, to just the letter "M" to help distinguish himself from his brother and law partner, Jackson A. Jordan. He died in 1890 after accidentally falling down an elevator shaft while greeting a friend.<a href="#cite_note-15">[15]</a> He is buried in Spring Grove Cemetery in <a href="Cincinnati%2C_Ohio" class="mw-redirect" title="Cincinnati, Ohio">Cincinnati, Ohio</a>.<a href="#cite_note-jordanbio-12">[12]</a></li>

<li>Daniel William Cooper (September 2, 1830 – December 11, 1920) was born near <a href="Fredericktown%2C_Ohio" title="Fredericktown, Ohio">Fredericktown, Ohio</a>. Cooper was the oldest founder and was elected the first consul of Sigma Chi. After graduating from Miami University in 1857 he became a <a href="Presbyterian" class="mw-redirect" title="Presbyterian">Presbyterian</a> minister. Cooper's original Sigma Chi badge came into the possession of the Fraternity at the time of his death. It is pinned on every new Grand Consul at their installation. Cooper is buried at the Allegheny Cemetery in Pittsburgh, Pa.<a href="#cite_note-16">[16]</a></li>

<li>Franklin Howard Scobey (May 27, 1837 – July 22, 1888) was born in <a href="Hamilton%2C_Ohio" title="Hamilton, Ohio">Hamilton, Ohio</a>.

He worked as a journalist in his hometown until 1879 but went on to become a cattleman in <a href="Kansas" title="Kansas">Kansas</a> until 1882. Scobey then moved back to Ohio where he took up farming until his death. Never physically robust, Scobey was afflicted with hearing loss in his final years.<a href="#cite_note-18">[18]</a></li>

<li>James Parks Caldwell (March 27, 1841 – April 5, 1912) was born in <a href="Monroe%2C_Ohio" title="Monroe, Ohio">Monroe, Ohio</a>. By the age of thirteen Caldwell had completed all academics which could be offered at his local academy. He was then sent to Miami University with advanced credits. Caldwell was just fourteen at the time of the founding making him the youngest of the founders. After Caldwell graduated from Miami University in 1857 he practiced some law in Ohio but moved to <a href="Mississippi" title="Mississippi">Mississippi</a> to begin a career as an educator. When the Civil War broke out he joined the <a href="Confederate_Army" class="mw-redirect" title="Confederate Army">Confederate Army</a>.

Harry St. John Dixon, a brother from the Psi chapter at the <a href="University_of_Virginia" title="University of Virginia">University of Virginia</a> in <a href="Charlottesville%2C_Virginia" title="Charlottesville, Virginia">Charlottesville, Virginia</a>, who fought for the <a href="Confederate_States_Army" title="Confederate States Army">Confederacy</a>, kept a record of all Sigma Chis within his vicinity on the flyleaf of his diary during the <a href="American_Civil_War" title="American Civil War">Civil War</a>.<a href="#cite_note-Constantine_Chapter_Article-20">[20]</a> He began planning a <a href="Confederate_Army" class="mw-redirect" title="Confederate Army">Confederate Army</a> chapter of Sigma Chi with this information. On September 17, 1864 Dixon founded the Constantine chapter of Sigma Chi during the <a href="Atlanta_campaign" title="Atlanta campaign">Atlanta campaign</a> with Harry Yerger, a brother from <a href="Mississippi" title="Mississippi">Mississippi</a> who was in Dixon's division. Dixon stated the reasons for which the war-time chapter was created saying, <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1244412712">

/* start https://en.wikipedia.org/ */

.mw-parser-output .templatequote{overflow:hidden;margin:1em 0;padding:0 32px}.mw-parser-output .templatequotecite{line-height:1.5em;text-align:left;margin-top:0}@media(min-width:500px){.mw-parser-output .templatequotecite{padding-left:1.6em}}

/* end https://en.wikipedia.org/ */

</style><blockquote class="templatequote">It was ascertained that a number of the fraternity were in the army of Tennessee under General Joseph E. Johnston during the Atlanta campaign in 1864. It was conceded that the South was forever disunited from the general government, and it was assumed that all chapters throughout the South would cease to exist. Furthermore, it was deemed expedient that we brothers should know each other and our several commands for the purpose of relief in distress, and communication in a case of need, with our Northern brethren. In the ruin at hand my sentiment was to preserve the lofty principles typified by the White Cross. I know that I had no authority to establish a chapter of Sigma Chi outside a college, or at all; but, isolated as we were, I thought I should raise the standard and fix a rallying point. By doing so we should preserve the Order, whether we failed or not in our struggle for independence.<a href="#cite_note-ReferenceA-21">[21]</a><a href="#cite_note-Clayton_County-22">[22]</a></blockquote>

Dixon and Yerger contacted all brothers listed in the diary who could come to the meeting.<a href="#cite_note-Constantine_Chapter_Article-20">[20]</a> They met at night in a deserted log cabin a few miles southwest of Atlanta. Dixon later wrote, <blockquote class="templatequote">The cabin was in a state of frightful dilapidation. Its rude walls and rafters were covered with soot and cobwebs, and the floor showed evidences of having been the resting place of sundry heaps of sheep.</blockquote>

Dixon was elected "Sigma" (president) and Yerger was elected "Chi" (vice president); the chapter also initiated two men. The only badge in the chapter was one Dixon had made from a <a href="United_States_Seated_Liberty_coinage" title="United States Seated Liberty coinage">silver half-dollar</a>.

The last meeting was held <a href="New_Year's_Day" title="New Year's Day">New Year's Day</a> 1865. The men at that meeting passed a resolution to pay a "tribute of respect" to the four brothers from the chapter who had died during the war. In May 1939 the Constantine chapter Memorial was erected by Sigma Chi in memory of the Constantine chapter and its members. The memorial is located on <a href="U.S._Route_41_in_Georgia" title="U.S. Route 41 in Georgia">U.S. 41</a> in <a href="Clayton_County%2C_Georgia" title="Clayton County, Georgia">Clayton County</a>, <a href="Georgia_(U.S._state)" title="Georgia (U.S. state)">Georgia</a>.<a href="#cite_note-ReferenceA-21">[21]</a><a href="#cite_note-Clayton_County-22">[22]</a>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Purdue_case">Purdue case</h4></div>

In 1876, <a href="Emerson_E._White" title="Emerson E. White">Emerson E. White</a> became president of <a href="Purdue_University" title="Purdue University">Purdue University</a>. He required each applicant for admission to sign a pledge "not to join or belong to any so-called <a href="Fraternities_and_sororities" class="mw-redirect" title="Fraternities and sororities">Greek society</a> or other college <a href="Secret_society" title="Secret society">secret society</a>" while attending the school. The Sigma Chi chapter at Purdue, which was already established at the university, sent petitions to the faculty and pleaded their case to the <a href="Board_of_trustees" class="mw-redirect" title="Board of trustees">board of trustees</a>, but was unsuccessful in changing the rule.<a href="#cite_note-23">[23]</a>

In the fall of 1881, Thomas P. Hawley applied for admission to the university. Having already been initiated into Sigma Chi, Hawley refused to sign the pledge and was denied admission. Hawley took Purdue to court, but the judge ruled in favor of the faculty's decision. He also ruled, however, that the faculty had no right to deny Hawley from his classes based on the <a href="Fraternities_and_sororities" class="mw-redirect" title="Fraternities and sororities">fraternity</a> issue. The case was brought to the <a href="Indiana_Supreme_Court" title="Indiana Supreme Court">Indiana Supreme Court</a>, which reversed the decision on June 21, 1882. This victory for Sigma Chi also allowed other fraternities at Purdue and led to the Purdue president's resignation in 1883.<a href="#cite_note-24">[24]</a>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="20th_century">20th century</h3></div>

During the first half of the 20th century the General Fraternity expanded in many places. In 1899, the fraternity adopted the flag design created by Henry V. Vinton. In 1901 the Grand Chapter approved the Fraternity's pledge pin. In 1903 at the Grand Chapter in <a href="Detroit" title="Detroit">Detroit</a> the Board of Grand Trustees was established. In 1922 the Alpha Beta chapter at <a href="University_of_California%2C_Berkeley" title="University of California, Berkeley">University of California, Berkeley</a> held the "Channingway Derby" which led to the creation of the "Sigma Chi Derby Days".<a href="#cite_note-25">[25]</a><a href="#cite_note-26">[26]</a> Some of the awards created during this time include the Significant Sig Award in 1935 and the Order of Constantine in 1948.<a href="#cite_note-27">[27]</a>

As of the beginning of the 20th century, Sigma Chi had installed a total of 74 chapters with 58 still active.<a href="#cite_note-28">[28]</a> Having only established a centralized form of government in 1922, Sigma Chi was installing new chapters at a rate of about one chapter per year. On April 22, 1922, the Beta Omega chapter was installed at the <a href="University_of_Toronto" title="University of Toronto">University of Toronto</a> in <a href="Toronto" title="Toronto">Toronto, Ontario</a> thus making Sigma Chi an international fraternity.<a href="#cite_note-3carlson-29">[29]</a>

The Sigma Chi Foundation was created on November 9, 1939, when the Sigma Chi Endowment Foundation was incorporated in <a href="Colorado" title="Colorado">Colorado</a>. This educational endowment was first discussed in 1898 by alumni who wanted to assist undergraduates financially so they could finish their undergraduate studies.<a href="#cite_note-3carlson-29">[29]</a>

The world wars of the 20th century took the lives of 103 Sigs in <a href="World_War_I" title="World War I">World War I</a> and 738 in <a href="World_War_II" title="World War II">World War II</a>. A great resurgence in undergraduate activity followed World War II due to an increase in chapter memberships. This increase was caused by the men returning from military service who went back to school and the usual addition of new brothers.<a href="#cite_note-3carlson-29">[29]</a> During World War II, it became apparent to the General Fraternity officers that a few alumni as well as a few undergraduate chapters believed some of the prerequisites for membership in Sigma Chi were outdated and should be changed or eliminated. This led to the first discussions about membership within the fraternity that continued until early in 1970. Until this time, membership requirements had specified that a potential member must be a "bona fide white male student". After the first discussion in 1948 at the Grand Chapter in <a href="Seattle" title="Seattle">Seattle</a>, the committee on Constitutional Amendments tabled the issue pending a further study of the problem to be reported to the 1950 Grand Chapter. The study showed that the issue was "very hot" on 13 campuses with Sigma Chi chapters and only "lukewarm" on a dozen other campuses.<a href="#cite_note-4carlson-30">[30]</a>

During this time period, the remaining four founders of Sigma Chi of the original seven all died; Daniel William Cooper was the last founder to die. Cooper's death led up to the Fraternity gaining one of its most priceless objects, Cooper's Sigma Phi badge. Cooper's body was sent by train to his final resting place in <a href="Pittsburgh" title="Pittsburgh">Pittsburgh</a>, and the Beta Theta chapter at the <a href="University_of_Pittsburgh" title="University of Pittsburgh">University of Pittsburgh</a> was given the privilege to administer his memorial service.

On December 13, 1920, Cooper's body was conveyed to the Beta Theta chapter house, where Beta Theta Consul Donald E. Walker removed Cooper's Sigma Phi Badge and replaced it with his own. Beta Theta Pro-Consul, <a href="Regis_Toomey" title="Regis Toomey">Regis Toomey</a>, sang the hymn "With Sacred Circle Broken" before Cooper was taken to his final resting place.<a href="#cite_note-31">[31]</a>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Badge">Badge</h3></div>

The badge of Sigma Chi is a white cross with white and black enamel. Two gold chains connect the two upper arms. Crossed keys are in the upper arm, an eagle's head lies in the left arm, and a scroll lies in its right arm. In the bottom arm lie two clasped hands and seven stars.

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Chapter_officers">Chapter officers</h3></div>

Officers in undergraduate chapters mostly have titles derived from <a href="Roman_consul" title="Roman consul">Imperial Rome</a>. The top officers of each chapter are known as the Consul (president), Pro Consul (vice-president), Annotator (secretary), Quaestor (treasurer), Magister (pledge trainer), Kustos (sergeant-at-arms), Tribune (communications), Risk Manager, and Historian. Those titles are the primary officers common to all chapters. Chapters also have other positions, such as Social Chairman, Sports Chairman, Scholarship Chairman, House Manager, Recruitment Chairman, etc., plus other positions and titles varying from chapter to chapter.

Alumni chapter positions and duties may also vary from chapter to chapter. Alumni chapters use the more common office titles such as: president, vice-president, secretary, and treasurer.

<li>In 2021, as part of an allegedly mandatory hazing event at the <a href="University_of_Tennessee_at_Chattanooga" title="University of Tennessee at Chattanooga">University of Tennessee at Chattanooga</a> chapter, 18-year-old freshman Dylan Johnson died as a result of excessive alcohol consumption. Manslaughter charges were brought against the Sigma Chi organization itself, rather than any individuals. In response, the chapter dissolved and the case was suspended. MIT later settled with Johnson's family for 3.46 million dollars.<a href="#cite_note-hazing_allegations-81">[81]</a><a href="#cite_note-Meyerhofer-82">[82]</a></li>

<li>In November 2024, the fraternity at <a href="Indiana_University" title="Indiana University">Indiana University</a> was issued a cease and desist for hazing violations.<a href="#cite_note-85">[85]</a></li>

<li>In March 2025, the fraternity at the <a href="University_of_Central_Florida" title="University of Central Florida">University of Central Florida</a> was suspended and placed under investigation after an alleged hazing incident.

According to the report, fraternity members were driving between 10 to 15 miles per hour before hitting pledges. The fraternity has a long history of disciplinary actions given by the university, counting eight just between 2015 and 2020.<a href="#cite_note-86">[86]</a><a href="#cite_note-87">[87]</a></li></ul>
